Joey Catanese

Joey Catanese (1956-1979) was a Corleone crime family enforcer. In 1979, Joey Zasa sent Catanese and Jerry Corrales to murder Vincent Mancini at his New York City apartment, and Catanese held Mancini's lover Grace Hamilton at the point of a knife as Catanese shot at Mancini's bed. However, Mancini had snuck around Catanese, and he ambushed him and held him at gunpoint. After Catanese told Corrales to cut Hamilton's throat, Mancini warned Corrales that Catanese would die if he did so. Mancini then had Corrales look at him as he shot Catanese in the head, and he would later go on to shoot Corrales after discovering that they had been sent by Zasa.
